    question , every other video i have watched on this issue , they only turn screw 1/4 turn, as it can lead to being too tight on hard lock and damage. You turned yours about 10 full turns ??,Thanks

    Physically can't believe that many services didn't know it was the steering box. It's very well known by ANYONE in the mechanic world, that float or play usually comes from the steering box. Sounds like all of them need to find a new profession. Good vid anyway mate.

    "Float", "Play", or "Lash" as I like to call it. I'm going to investigate to see how much "Lash" I have in my steering right now. 😀

    hi more positive caster by 1/2 degree [car will wander way way less] both sides and adjust steering box . These boxes are crap from factory and Ford will never fix under warranty .Although they are very very sloppy for a steering box . There were a few failures under warranty PkPj Bt50. My 60yo Holden has a better box than these sloppy units .
